THIS week we were treated to two superstars making impromptu appearances in their city slickers.

First Goldenballs himself David Beckham was spotted from a passing tour bus wearing only underpants while posing for a fashion photo shoot.

Then Liam Neeson stripped down to his boxers and got gunged for charity on a chat show.

While Beckham looked like one of his buffed billboards, big Liam had clearly let his gym membership lapse.

However, the fact he did it with a complete lack of vanity and a whole lot of humour made the Irishman by far the most attractive.

Neeson is a big bear of a guy who, in his Taken movies, single-handedly wipes out about a thousand armed bad guys.

That’s as believable as Beckham being “accidentally” spotted in his Y-fronts during a photo shoot.

The colour of money

THE colour shade described as Pantone 2685C doesn’t mean much to me, but I know the very sight of it makes me hungry.

That’s because it’s the colour industry’s description of Cadbury’s purple. The chocolate makers have just won a court battle to protect it as ‘their’ colour.

With Christian Louboutin bagging the famous red on the soles of his shoes, and the future being Orange, other businesses better get in quick before the colours run out.

A big psy of relief

HAVE you perfected your Gangnam Style dance moves yet? For those of you who don’t have a teenager to keep you informed, Gangnam Style is a hit song from a South Korean musician called Rapper Psy.

I spent time in South Korea recently and all the showbiz stars in the magazines looked like they’d been cloned to fit a particular look of youth and fragile beauty.

Word is that the music industry chiefs in Korea are baffled that the only act to reach the holy grail of stardom in the West is a chubby eccentric who’s definitely not in the first flush of youth. Isn’t it good when the public bites back?

Fruity Cliffhanger

CHRISTMAS is a while away yet, but in the calendar world, competition is hotting up with those well-stocked stalls setting up in our shopping centres.

Research shows the most popular calendars are either pop stars or the now-familiar charity ‘naked’ versions involving naughty bits hidden by strategically placed objects.

Maybe calendar king Cliff Richard will combine the two if he wants to improve on last year’s success.

I only hope someone has the good sense to talk him out of it and hide the fruit bowl.
